I had some pretty hard times recently in lockdown and then being ill so quite of lot of desperation came out in some lyrics, but its all brutally honest and i always manage to see some light at the end of the tunnel.

lyrics

Why am I not moving
Why am I run aground
Life has put a tonne of rock
On my unsupported sand

Why am I intruding
On everyone who isn’t there
Suffer inside screaming in silence
When you know nothing’s there

Oh please be here this moment
As I fall I cannot see
Down a hole with distant voices
Who plead hear me

In that moment all I see
A berlin wall between them and me
Throw out that line
Then with distance I might find

Love can make you bleed
But it can make you see

This day, feel the wind blow
This day, there can be
All the roses that still flower
In our soul
So I’m leaving, we can cry
Heart beating, knowing why
The world needs us to be honest
With ourselves on open roads
Don’t suffer alone
Those open roads
Still can be home
